Title: Amperex 6922 (6dj8) tubes
Post by: confused on November 02, 2010, 03:16:45 PM
Hello all,

Been pretty busy!  I have a lot of NOS 6922 tubes for sale.  It appears they are worth 50-100 a piece on ebay.  Call me to purchase as many as you need for 35 each, (buy 5 and save 25 (5 for 150).  Also Mike did you try your pair yet, and what do you think?

Also would consider trades for other audio gear, let me know what you have.

THX,

Dale

Hello again,

Just checked prices for these tubes at Tube world, about 200 each.  These are gold pin PQ 6922s made in Holland and the US by Amperex.   Apear to be NOS from the 60's.

Will not sell bulk, for someone else to put on ebay, but will let some go to members at quoted price.

THX,

Dale

I thought so,,I peeked inside it but it was difficult to tell which tubes were in it--easy to tell that it sounded exquisite though  ;D

Yes sir brand new (NOS) gold pin 6922s, dated 1963 IIRC.  The AR has three of them.  They sounded so good I bought another three from Dale to have a full replacement set.  Mine were branded Beckman but you could tell they were the exact same tube.  The ink color and even the font was the same.  Good stuff!
